Offering To Sate The Beast

Thu, 05/08/2014 - 15:07 -- Tork45

We all have a beast inside

One that claws and howls to be set free

It's a game of Jekyll and Hyde

"Set me loose on a killing spree"

It gets stronger when I get mad

When its loose, its hard to reel back in

I've do some things that were really bad

This beast that shares my skin

He, it, I, me have hurt others

Something I'm not proud to admit

It likes revenge give its druthers

I'm terrified of the crimes it can commit

Hopefully this offering will be enough

To keep him locked away

It gets pretty rough

Trying to keep the beast at bay
